Biobanks are critical infrastructure for medical research but they
are also the subject of considerable ethical and legal uncertainty.
Given that biobanks process large quantities of genomic data,
questions have emerged as to how genetic privacy should be
protected. What types of genetic privacy rights and rights holders
should be protected and to what extent? Since 25th May 2018 the
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has applied and now
occupies a key position in the European legal framework for the
regulation of biobanking. This book takes an in-depth look at the
function, problems, and opportunities presented by European data
protection law under the GDPR as a framework for the protection of
genetic privacy in biobanking in Europe. Hallinan argues that the
substantive framework presented by the GDPR already offers an
admirable base-line level of protection for the range of genetic
privacy rights engaged by biobanking. The book further argues that,
whilst numerous problems with this standard of protection are
indeed identifiable, the GDPR offers the flexibility to accommodate
solutions to these problems, as well as the procedural mechanisms
to realise these solutions.
